What is recorded here
Mounds and ditches still mark Killybasky, though no building remains to explain them. A rath is a fortress, a boundary, a claim drawn in earth before stone. People may have lived there, fled there, or simply passed it without remembering. The ground keeps its shape while human certainty leaves it behind.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as RATH. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
